Yes it is crazy, like I said there may be some easy work around I am missing but I didn't see one. You key in the channel number but it is the only channel listing. So my Sportsnet example; I only have Sportsnet West listed once in the guide, unlike my old PVR which has SD on channel 23 and HD on 227(?). On the 3510 I have only the channel 23 option, which automatically tunes to the HD feed. Which is normally nice because it cuts down on the size of the guide and guide surfing. But when Sportsnet goes bonkers and the HD feed doesn't work I'm left with a black screen and no alternative.

There is a video option section where you can select from 480p - 1080p - 1080p/i. Changes this did nothing to revert to the SD feed.

Any experience with this? This is obviously problematic with sports if the game goes longer than scheduled and you happen to be watching a little behind live.
No experience with this, sorry.

Kind of similar, if you start watching a recording before it finishes, once it is finished recording it pops up the PVR list on you. There doesn't seem to be a back button on the new remote, so you have to hit exit which takes you back to live programming, then go back into PVR list and start watching your recording again. It's irritating.

Hopefully I'm missing a step and someone can offer a solution.
